NOTE
- Please be advised there are strictly no functions at Fleets Escape, and no extra visitors are allowed without prior consent.
- Guests at Fleets can enjoy it's secluded location adjoining the national park but as it's a rural property the water is supplied filtered from tanks. Landscaping is mainly natural bush with a flat semi-grassed outdoor area below the house facing the natural park. Due to limited water supply during the dryer months and frequent visits by kangaroos the quality of the grass varies throughout the year. The photos online are during the winter months when water is abundant and surroundings are lush and green, please note that during summer the grasses turn brown. It is a bush property and does not have a manicured garden or lush green lawns.
- Please also note that we have satellite internet for checking social media and emails only, it is not suitable for streaming or large downloads.

Chriestmas holiday!
I booked for me, my son and family from Broome, 3 boysages 8 10 12, my son and family from Sydney. Unfortunately 2 members had to return to Sydney thus missing out on a lovely week in great location. Only problem for my 15 year old Sydney grandson was a lack of independence {a City boy used to being able to come and go with fair amount of freedom} as he needed to be drive anywhere he might want to go.They all loved playing on the great game you have. We kind of rattled around in the huge house but they enjoyed the great sense of space and the Wildlife we saw.A fantastic place to stay

Great family getaway
All in all a lovely holiday that was enjoyed by all. There were 6 grandchildren ranging in age from 1 to 9, and there was something for all of them to keep them entertained. The hit with the children was the arcade game. The house is fantastic. Certainly has the "WOW" factor. When we arrived the downstairs bathroom had been inadvertantly locked, but one phone call to Anna and the problem was solved. One thing I'd like to point out is the water pressure is not the best and actually stopped flowing in the middle of a shower a couple of times, and sometimes also in the kitchen. I really don't think this can be helped so just be prepared, or staggering showers may work. There were 16 of us all up so that water was working hard.

Family Reunion
We had 14 family members catching up for the first time in many years and this property was fantastic. It is a large property allowing great communal dinners and games but also the private space to have time to yourself. Anna was excellent with communications and very helpful with any queries. Highly recommend this property. Jim

Great location
Beautiful house in a central location. Stayed with 8 adults and 7 kids and comfortably fit. Slightly disappointed that the green grass shown in the online pictures is now just dirt, as this was one of the reasons we selected to stay here. Otherwise great!

Perfect for our family reunion
We had a big family getaway, this home had lots of different spaces, and a little fireplace that people gathered around. The house is well built and quite soundproof from room to room. The bed linen and towels were very clean, and the water was hot. We also had a very nice lunch at Flutes estate, a short walk away. Thanks for a great stay!

Excellent home for families
The Fleets Escape is a beautiful, expansive home for large and multiple families. It caters for young and old, surrounded by nature with lots of space outside for kids to run around, play and explore, while also catering to adults wanting to walk/wander or cycle. The owners also provide all the basics in good quantity. It was an excellent 5-night stay for us (6 adults and 7 kids).

Perfect for large groups
We had 12 adults and 5 kids, so a big house with a big kitchen was a must! This property ticks all the boxes and more. The pizza oven made for a great fun night and the fire kept the atmosphere for the wet nights. Only negative was the water pressure, you could only use one tap at a time. If the dishwasher was on then there were no showers as the water just trickled out. The hot water took a long time to heat and because it is a storage tank, runs out quickly. We soon learnt to split the showers and keep them super short and all other taps off! Other then this everyone had a ripper of a time and look forward to doing it again!

Family Reunion
The Flutes Estate property we stayed in was excellent for our large family group . It was beautifully set up, very comfortable with everything we needed. We loved the fire, the pizza oven, the bbq, the kitchen and pantry facilities. The showers/bathrooms and bedrooms were excellent. Bedrooms were a little cold at night but plenty blankets were supplied, as well as oil heaters and so once in bed we were very comfortable. It is the middle of winter!! Fantastic toys etc for the little ones and good TV/Netflix for teenagers and sports lovers! Wifi access was sufficient for us all. (12 adults) We enjoyed the many family friendly winery/brewery venues in the area, as well as being close to Margaret River and Dunsborough. Overall, a thoroughly enjoyable holiday for our family and great communication with Anna - who answered all queries immediately. We would recommend this venue for any larger group /families and would definitely book again. Thanks Anna and Flutes Estate!
